LinkedIn Local Raises Money for Andover Foodbank

Many local businesses attended the launch of the first ever LinkedIn Local in Andover. The event was hosted by Andrew Middleton, of I'm Not Done Yet, and Evette Curtis of Easy Peasy Admin. Basepoint Andover provided the venue, drinks and nibbles for the night.

LinkedIn Local events are designed to put 'the social back into social media', by enabling both current and new connections on the night to get to know each other personally and build a strong local business network.

In attendance also was Jenny LeLean, The Manager for Andover Foodbank. Money generated from the ticket sales was donated to Andover Foodbank, an amazing £140 total. Thank you to all that joined us to make it a successful evening.

Lucy Middleton, General Manager, commented "I was very touched that Andrew and Evette chose Basepoint as the inaugural venue for the first event. We were also really keen to give something back into the community from the event, so Andrew choosing to donate to Andover Foodbank was very welcomed and we are thrilled to have presented £140 to them."
